Chapter 405
‘B*stard child?’
Did Cedrick just say Miles was a b*stard? Catelyn looked at Cedrick incredulously as she felt lightning
strike through her, fiery rage coursing throughout her body.
At the same time, however, she felt relieved.
Cedrick did not know the truth after all; he was just using her and Miles as his scapegoat. “I’m fine with
you using me, Cedrick Mason, but to use Miles, my son? Disgustingly deplorable!” spat Catelyn as her
eyes reddened. Cedrick shot a cold glare at her and took out a checkbook from his pocket, writing on
one piece with his black fountain pen. “One hundred thousand. Is that enough?” Staring at the check,
Catelyn felt unadulterated rage rushing through her veins as she snatched it and tore it into pieces,
tossing them over his head. “So what if you’re loaded? You can’t restore a child’s reputation with

The pieces of paper rained on them, and a few pieces even landed on Cedrick’s collar.
His charming face sank and darkened in an instant.
“Miles is the light of my life and my everything. I won’t allow you to stain his purity with your filthy
definition of a ‘moral’!
“Congratulations, Cedrick Mason. You’ve yet again overstepped my boundaries. You disgust me!”
Catelyn’s patience had been stripped away completely as she shoved him away and walked away from
him.
Since Cedrick had yet to know the truth, Miles should not have been taken away by him.
If that was the case, where was he? Could this be one of his pranks?
‘Filthy.’ ‘Disgusting.’
Those words rang in Cedrick’s ears, filling his entire being with anger. Eventually, Cedrick exploded
with rage and pulled Catelyn into his arms.
“You think I’m disgusting? I’ll stain you with my filth, then!”
He grabbed her by the collar and pulled her to his face, his boiling-hot breath fanning her face with
anger. It was as if he had been possessed by a beast, about to tear her into pieces.
“What are you doing? Let go of me!” Catelyn looked at him with fear in her eyes.
Cedrick closed the gap between them by forcing a kiss on her lips.
“Mmph!” Catelyn shivered in terror and struggled to free herself.
Not only did he despise her to such an extent, but he even shamed her and Miles so blatantly.
What made him even think he could kiss her?
What was she to him? Was she just a tool for him to take his anger out on?
Why did she fall for a man like him?
His aggression took over him completely that it tore Catelyn’s lip, the taste of iron seeping into their

Catelyn’s feeble attempt to free herself would only tire her out more. Thus, she gave it up and stared at
the ceiling blankly.
“Are you going to force yourself onto me again?” Cedrick froze at this question, freezing and looking at
her with defeat.
Thump! He kicked the chair closest to him with all his strength.
“Catelyn Clark, I’ve tolerated enough. Don’t take my mercy for granted.” Catelyn chuckled coldly. Since
when was violence considered a form of mercy? She would rather not have any of his ‘mercy’!
At that moment, noises were heard from the store shelf across from them. 1.
Seconds later, a child walked toward them.
Glancing in the child’s direction, Cedrick had a rough idea of what happened.
“Useless bunch of people; can’t even look after a mere child!”
Catelyn followed the direction of his gaze, only to meet eyes with a boy, much to her shock.
She used to not be able to differentiate between Ollie and Miles, but not anymore. That boy…
